Mirror.co.uk - News - EXCLUSIVE: BUSH PLOT TO BOMB HIS ARAB ALLY

America trying to level the Al Jazeera news network? Never!!

Mirror.co.uk - News - EXCLUSIVE: BUSH PLOT TO BOMB HIS ARAB ALLY: "The attack would have led to a massacre of innocents on the territory of a key ally, enraged the Middle East and almost certainly have sparked bloody retaliation."

I JUST found this story now, yet it's dated Nov. 22nd. OK, I'll admit, I don't read the paper or watch the news as much as I should, but this sounds pretty big. Between "The Daily Show", blogs, internet lounging, CBC and CNN, you'd THINK I would have heard about this, right? You'd THINK would have been talked about just a LITTLE more.



What's my point? To me, this is HUGE and extremely scary news, had Bush done what the article suggests he wanted to do. Isn't it amazing how stories of such importance and potential global impact are so easily over looked? Kind of reminds me of another little memo that was floating around some time ago.

The other Downing Street Memo...

...and a website dedicated to it.

So what did I get INSTEAD in my news-watching this week? Something about Oprah being on Letterman next week, AND....



Bush shakeing hands with a Genghis Khan look-a-like somewhere in some Asian-esc country.

Of course, I don't know WHICH Asian-esc country, but that's not really important. What IS important, is that this said country was not, I repeat, NOT America. See? We can be worldly, right? We get along with other countries? Weird lookin' people in forin' places gooood!

Then again, for all that I know, it could have been a sound-stage in Burbank. Maybe even the same one where this famous photo was taken.


(no offense Neil)

A quick check on CNN's site, reveals nothing, but American reps denying everything (surprised?)

CNN.com - 'Bomb Jazeera' memo: Media warned - Nov 23, 2005: "Two men face trial under Britain's Official Secrets Act in connection with release of the memo, and the attorney general's office warned news organizations that the case against them should proceed 'without prejudice.'"

Well, that about wraps it up then, right?

"A White House official told CNN, 'We are not going to dignify something so outlandish with a response.' And a Pentagon official called the Daily Mirror report 'absolutely absurd.' "

Well, if the Pentagon says it's so, then it must be so, right?. Case closed.

Reuters reported the following on the 25th:

National, World and Business News | Reuters.com: "The Daily Mirror newspaper reported on Tuesday that a secret British government memo said British Prime Minister Tony Blair had talked Bush out of bombing Al Jazeera's headquarters in Qatar in April last year."

So...let me get this straight. Help me out here. A bunch of guys in England are on trial for a memo that's being denied even exists. When asked about it, the british refuse to comment, and the American's blow it off as utter nonsense (or as the Queen would say, "Rubbish"). Oh, and Oprah is opening on Broadway in a few weeks.

Even scarier, this "memo"(keep in mind I'm still undecided on ANYONE'S credibility here) was from APRIL, which means, WHO THE HELL CARES! THE PHANTOM TRAIN HAS LEFT THE METAPHORICAL STATION.

Well shoot Billy-Bob, they're just a bunch A-Rabs out to take our freedom and liberty and what-not, anyway, right? F*CK 'EM ALL!!!

“By this time all the guys figured Jose was crazy. But they also figured he was kind of smart crazy. When he told tall stories about his native Porto Rico the guys paid more attention to him figuring that since his story about the girl was true there might be a fifty-fifty chance that his stories about Porto Rico were also true. Jose was a very funny guy but then the bakery was full of funny guys and it was just as well not to question them too closely. You took them as they came and said nothing.”

“They all got interested then because everybody at the bakery wanted a better job only none of them ever found one. ‘Where did you get this better job, Jose’? ‘In a studio, of course’, said Jose. ‘That is why I came to California. Didn’t I tell you I came to find work in the studios?’
Nobody said anything. They just stared at Jose. From anybody else this would have seemed more bull but from Jose they knew it was the truth. How did you like that? As far as the guys at the bakery were concerned the studios might just as well be in China as in Hollywood. They paid good dough but nobody except an uncle or maybe a nephew could crack them. Yet Jose just as calm as a cucumber had walked into one and got what he wanted.
‘How did you get this job, Jose?’
‘I asked for it,’ said Jose.”



“Did anybody ever come back from the dead any single one of the millions who got killed did any one of them ever come back and say by god I’m glad I’m dead because death is always better than dishonor? Did they say I’m glad I died to make the world safe for Democracy?”

“Nobody but the dead know whether all these things people talk about are worth dying for or not. And the dead can’t talk. So the words about noble deaths and sacred blood and honor and such are all put into dead lips by grave robbers and fakes who have no right to speak for the dead. If a man says death before dishonor he is either a fool or a liar because he doesn’t know what death is.”

I don't get it. This guy posted comments on my blog, and this was the website he sent me. I've never waterskied, or have I ever even hinted at my interest in the sport.

Turandot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wow!! It's been a while since I've posted. Last night: Turandot at the Queen Elizabeth Theater, in Vancouver.

Turandot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Turandot is an opera in three acts by Giacomo Puccini (which was left unfinished by Puccini at his death, and completed by Franco Alfano) to an Italian libretto by Giuseppe Adami and Renato Simoni, based on the play by Carlo Gozzi. First performance: Teatro alla Scala, Milan, 1926. Turandot is a Persian word meaning 'the Daughter of Turan', Turan being the region of Central-Asia."
